TRACK SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER MUCH FROM THAT DAY... BUT WESLEYAN ACADEMY FRESHMAN PARIS WHITE WILL NEVER FORGET THE DATE MARCH 26TH, 2013. ALL MY FRIENDS UNDERSTAND. THEY'VE BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE SO THEY KNOW WHAT GOES ON AND HOW I HAVE TO LIVE NOW. TRACK SHE WAS AN 8TH GRADER ON THE VARSITY SOFTBALL TEAM- DOING BASERUNNING DRILLS. THEN IT HAPPENED. I HAD A HEART ATTACK AND I PASSED OUT. I IMMEDIATELY RAN TO THE FIELD, I GRABBED HER HAND, I STARTED PRAYING AND THEY HIT HER TWO TIMES WITH A DEFIBRILATOR. TRACK PARIS WOULD SPEND A MONTH IN THE HOSPITAL RECOUPERATING FROM A HEART CONDITION SHE NEVER KNEW SHE HAD. WHEN YOU DID THE MRI, THE CAT SCAN, THE EKG AND YOU LOOKED AT THE HEART FROM THE OUTSIDE, EVERYTHING LOOKED NORMAL. NOT UNTIL THEY GAVE HER THE CATHETERIZATION, THE CAT SCAN AND WENT IN WITH A TUBE AND THEN THERE WERE ABLE TO SEE THAT SHE HAD CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE. IT'S BEEN TOUGH BUT IT'S ALSO A BLESSING THAT SHE'S STILL WITH US. TRACK PARIS AND HER FAMILY RECEIVED MANY BLESSINGS THAT DAY. ONE OF THE BIGGEST CAME FROM HER TEAMMATE- A FELLOW 8TH GRADER, TAYLOR BISBEE. COACH ASKED ME IF I KNEW CPR AND I SAID YES I DO, AND THAT'S ALL I REMEMBER, GOING DOWN NEXT TO HER AND HELPING HER. TRACK LIKE ALL 8TH GRADERS AT WESLEYAN, TAYLOR WAS REQUIRED TO TAKE A CPR CLASS. SHE COMPLETED HER CERTIFICATION áTHE DAY BEFORE.á I KNOW IT'S A SCARY MOMENT FOR HER TO ACTUALLY DO IT THE DAY AFTER YOU GET CERTIFIED BUT SHE KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING. AND IM HAPPY SHE DID. I FEEL LIKE SHE'S A REALLY GREAT FRIEND. AND I LOVE HER BECAUSE I JUST KNOW THAT SHE'S HERE NOW AND SO I'M JUST REALLY HAPPY TO SEE HER. TRACK PARIS AND TAYLOR BOTH SAY THE ENTIRE TEAM PLAYED A ROLE THAT DAY- A DAY THAT COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE....AND A DAY THAT NONE OF THEM WILL EVER FORGET. I LOVE EM A LOT BECAUSE WITHOUT THEM I DON'T KNOW IF I'D STILL BE SITTING HERE TODAY, HONESTLY. TRACK PARIS WHITE. SHE IS A LIVING MIRACLE. AND SHE'S THIS WEEK'S FLOW ATHLETE OF THE WEEK. IF YOU KNOW A LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT WHO'S BEATING THE ODDS, OVERCOMING ADVERSITY, OR HAS A UNIQUE STORY, NOMINATE THEM TO BE THE NEXT ATHLETE OF THE WEEK. SEND EMAILS TO "SPORTS- AT- WXII12-
